The following is my personal philosophy of education: I believe that all children have the to ability to learn. A student's curriculum should be integrated with multiple-intelligences in mind. It is crucial for students to be able to make personal connections in their learning. Good teaching means engaging students in meaningul dialogue, text and their

I have worked with children, adolescents and adults both as a social worker and as a teacher. I truly enjoy developing rapport and then using it to instill trust and respect both me and for self as a learner. My own personality is easy and fun and I convey this to my students. I am a perceptive personality with masterful people skills andI can quickly see the impediments to success and then devise activity and discussion that undoes these factors. I am affirming and well structured in my approach. I think it fair to say that the vast majority of my students in tutoring and in college writing, adolescent social programming and parenting classes have also enjoyed and benefitted from our learning relations -- as have I. As an ivy league graduate, I was held to high standards which I have maintained throughout my career. I have a bacehlor's degree in social science and a master's as well.
